S/C Pulley swap , belt questions?
- Thread starter slowchevy
- Start date
Nah, I'm dropping a pulley because I want a little more oomph outta this car.
I'm asking now so I know what to order whenever I get to it.. doing a few mods in a few months.
- headers , catless DP
- 3.5 pulley
- TB spacer (everyone's got opinions on that, I believe that it'll help so why not try it since I already have a coolant blockoff done. Figure it could help insulate the TB a little bit. If it doesn't work, then I just undo the bolts and put the stock ones back in.)
ZZP's site says a 3.5" is totally fine for a stock car even, so I should (theoretically) be fine to push a few more pounds through it since it's already got a FWI/IAT relocation, cooler plugs, colder t-stat (180 non-drilled)
Past that, not really looking to do anything else to the car.
Figured I'd ask ahead of time, I'm gonna get this all done sometime between next month and the spring time. I'll probably order a PCM from them as well around that time.

She should scoot a little bit with this stuff when it's done.
Don't be a Sally a 180 is fine, I always ran a stock belt with a 3.5-3.6 but it was a different tensioner I think, find out what size you think it will be and let me know I have a bunch of random belts from my supercharged days and different configurations on my other car most are like new, and a pulley tool when your ready to get rid of the stock junk
What's wrong with gatorback belts / I thought they discontinued them?
James says go with the ones that were bolded on the bottom.. lemmie know if you have any. That'd be much appreciated
I have a whole snout I'm just going to swap over.. and the s/c oil as well. There's already a Thrasher 3.5" SC pulley on it. Dunno how it comes off.
No, it is not. Period.
Add more power and torque and plans for further mods... the trans can't hold together stock
Add to the fact more mods and more times giving it more gas for smiles
Had the stock trans be fine that would make this a whole different story
Do whatever you want, but don't act like there isn't a bigger thing to address here...

its probably come to the time that you should look for a cheap piece of shit gtp to mod and be nice to the park ave keep it a daily drive, in the long run it would probably be cheaper take as much weight out of it as possible and a mostly stock trans will live for quite a while in the high 200's to low 300whp range
